Every year at Cannes Lions, the advertising world takes stock of itself — what's working, what's not, and what it's pretending not to notice. Autodesk CMO Dara Treseder joins Rapid Response live from the festival to cut through the noise. She breaks down the industry's complicated relationship with AI, weighs in on the hottest and most overrated campaigns of the year including sharp takes on Nike, Adidas, and Starbucks, and explains why the path from CMO to CEO is suddenly the most interesting career move in business. Treseder also gets candid about the brand of Elon Musk post-IPO, what Autodesk's $350 million investment in the next generation of workers actually signals, and what separates a brand collaboration that breaks through from one that just breaks.Visit the Rapid Response website here: https://www.rapidresponseshow.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if a self-taught coder and waiter became one of the most active healthcare venture capitalists in the country - and could teach you everything about reinventing yourself, embracing the incubation period, and finding massive opportunity in the chaos everyone else is running from? Join Nick Lamagna on The A Game Podcast: Real Estate Investing For Entrepreneurs for one of the most raw, real, and inspiring conversations we've had - Marcus Whitney, co-founder and CEO of Jumpstart Health Investors, 3x IBJJF Masters World Champion, soccer team co-owner, podcast host, hip hop head, and creative rebel who went from broke waiter in Nashville to venture capitalist disrupting the entire healthcare industry. This isn't just a business episode - it's a masterclass on identity, reinvention, critical thinking, and what it really means to build a life worth living on your own terms, whether you're in the grind, on the mat, or in the middle of figuring out what the next chapter looks like. Whether you're an entrepreneur trying to raise capital, a Jiu Jitsu competitor questioning your next move, a real estate investor looking for your edge, or just someone trying to figure out who they are when the title gets stripped away - this conversation will change the way you think about failure, freedom, and what it actually means to bring your A Game. Marcus went from dropping out of college and showing up to a restaurant in uniform asking for a job on the spot, to building, scaling, and selling multiple companies and running one of the most active early-stage healthcare VC firms in the US. Now he's opening up about the lessons, the losses, and the season of life nobody talks about - the incubation period. While most people only talk about the climb, Marcus breaks down the real game: ✅ Why standing still is the riskiest move you can make in today's economy - and what entrepreneurship as "full contact economics" really means ✅ How to separate your identity from your achievements so failure never has the power to break you ✅ The difference between the Hustler and the Hacker - and why you need both to create outsized performance in business and in life ✅ What waiting tables taught him about people skills that no MBA program ever could ✅ Why the incubation period isn't failure - it's the most important season of growth most people never give themselves permission to experience ✅ How surrounding yourself with the right people (and cutting back on the wrong ones) is the single biggest lever you can pull for your future ✅ Why hope is the most underrated weapon an entrepreneur has - and how to use it to survive the seasons when nothing seems to be working ✅ What Jiu Jitsu, venture capital, and going back to white belt in Mexico City all have in common + more Connect with Marcus: www.marcuswhitney.com Marcus Whitney on Instagram Marcus Whitney on Facebook Marcus Whitney on YouTube Marcus Whitney on LinkedIn Marcus Whitney on Twitter   Connect with Jumpstart Foundry: www.jsf.co Jumpstart Foundry on Instagram Jumpstart Foundry on Facebook Jumpstart Foundry on YouTube Jumpstart Foundry on LinkedIn Jumpstart Foundry on TikTok Jumpstart Foundry on Twitter   Connect with Jumpstart Health Ecosystem: Jumpstart Nova Jumpstart Health Investors Jumpstart Capital Jumpstart Insight   Connect with Nashville Soccer Club: www.nashvillesc.com Nashville Soccer Club on Instagram Nashville Soccer Club on Facebook Nashville Soccer Club on YouTube Nashville Soccer Club on LinkedIn Nashville Soccer Club on TikTok Nashville Soccer Club on Twitter --- Connect with Nick Lamagna www.nicknicknick.com Text Nick (516)540-5733 Connect on ALL Social Media and Podcast Platforms Here FREE Checklist on how to bring more value to your buyers

The gang is all back from the West Coast swing, though we are still down Freddie while he rests his vocal cords up — and this week we invited Mr. Smile himself, Chris Rice, CEO of Kaulig Racing, to join us! We start off by getting background on Chris, the time he spent working with Tommy Baldwin, and everything that Kaulig Racing currently has going on. After that, they dish about Sonoma and the races that took place there over the weekend, which was AJ Allmendinger's 500th Career Cup start. But before we got into Spot On, Spot Off, we had to ask him about the elephant in the room — the rumor of Dodge going Cup racing in 2027. The topics the Door Bumper Clear crew debated this week included: Will SVG make the 2026 Chase? More Hocevar drama... Connor Zilisch's move to stay out for Stage 2 in the O'Reilly Race NASCAR's newest change with the foam inserts coming out of the Cup cars' bumpers Should Chicagoland be on the 2027 schedule? To close out the show, we had a fan call in blaming Hocevar for his relationship status, we ask Chris about his passionate personality, and we rattle off the winners from around the racing world.

Charles Gaudet built his first multi-million dollar business at 24 years old while battling severe learning disabilities, survived a hospitalization in his early twenties after working from 3:30am until midnight seven days a week, and has since helped clients across six, seven, eight, and nine figure businesses generate over $1 billion in combined revenue. Yahoo Finance nicknamed him the CEO Whisperer, his work has been featured in Forbes and Fox Business, and he hosts the Beyond Seven Figures podcast. But none of that is what makes this conversation worth your time. What makes this episode worth your time is Charles sitting down with Larry and being completely honest about the phone call his dad made in the final weeks of his life, offering to give up everything he had ever made just to spend more time with his kids and grandkids. That one moment reframed everything Charles thought he knew about success, hard work, and what a father is actually building toward. If you have ever worn your busyness like a badge, this one is going to hit you somewhere important. Charles is a husband of 24 years to his wife Heather, a father of three, a CEO coach to some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world, and a man who learned the hard way that working harder is not the same as building something that lasts. This is Episode 1497 of the Dad Edge. Charles Gaudet went from a kid selling construction paper art door to door at age four to coaching billionaires in boardrooms, and the thread connecting all of it is the same lesson a neighbor named Mrs. Hersey gave him when he was mortified: always bring your best. Timeline Summary [1:02] Larry opens with a June-only Alliance offer including a signed copy of his book, a patience course, and 50 intimate conversation starters [3:07] Charles explains how Yahoo Finance dubbed him the CEO Whisperer and why asking the questions nobody else will ask is his edge [4:40] The boardroom moment with the CEO of a $34 billion company and why Charles was the only person in the room willing to challenge him [8:03] Charles tells the story from the US Army War College: a five-star general who couldn't figure out why they kept losing a battle until he asked the lowest-ranking soldier on the ground [13:26] The phone call from his dad in the final weeks of his life: "I would give up everything I've ever made just to spend more time with you and the grandkids" [17:29] Growing up barely seeing his dad, the pillow and blankets by the front door, and starting his first business at age four just to get his dad's attention [20:29] Selling construction paper art door to door as a kid and the lesson Mrs. Hersey gave him that shaped every standard he has held himself to since [23:07] Charles teaching his son the difference between being an employee and owning a business using a lemonade stand, and watching his son at 19 reach a multi-million dollar valuation [28:16] Working 3:30am to midnight seven days a week, not eating, not sleeping, and landing in the emergency room at 22 with his organs shutting down [41:32] The diving board principle: the further it bends, the higher you spring, and why gratitude became Charles's superpower when resistance shows up [45:29] Charles's dad competing against him instead of cheering for him, and why Charles chose a completely different approach with his own kids [47:35] What it means to be the shoulders your kids stand on, matching his son dollar for dollar on a car, and why making it easier is not always making it better [52:55] How Charles and Heather built a marriage strong enough to last by having the hard conversation about honesty before they were even fully exclusive [1:02:26] The distinction between being rich and being wealthy, and the mic drop moment when Charles's son told him exactly why their family has the highest quality of life he knows [1:07:32] Why a loud house means happy kids and what it looks like to build a home people actually want to come back to Five Key Takeaways The people who give you the most honest feedback are the most valuable people in your life. Whether it is a 10-year assistant, a lowest-ranking soldier, or a neighbor who tells a four-year-old his artwork is not worth $0.50, the person willing to tell you the truth is the one who actually helps you grow. Hustle culture is using the wrong scorecard. Working hard and working until midnight are not goals. The question is what outcome you are actually working toward, and whether the sacrifices you are making are getting you closer to the life you want or further from it. Resistance is not a sign that something is going wrong. It is usually a sign you are about to break through to a new level. Charles uses gratitude as a tool to stay in his own power rather than giving it away to circumstances he cannot control. Your kids do not need you to make everything easy for them. They need you to build the shoulders they can stand on. The goal is to help them become healthier, wealthier, and happier than you, not to protect them from the lessons that would get them there. True wealth is not measured by the bank account. It is measured by the quality of your life. When Charles asked his son how he would rate their family's quality of life, his son said they had the highest of anyone he knew, because he actually wanted to spend time with his parents.

He built companies, lost his health, nearly lost his mind, and then got a phone call from his dying father that reframed everything. And somehow, in the middle of all of it, he figured out how to be the kind of dad whose kids say they want to spend more time with him than anyone they know. That is the whole game right there.

Americans are sitting on more home equity than ever -- and more of them are tapping it. Not because they're struggling, but because they locked in ultra-low mortgage rates and they're not giving those up. So instead of refinancing, they're turning to HELOCs and home equity loans. Joe and OG walk through the math, the psychology, the questions most people never think to ask, and the specific situations where borrowing against your home equity actually makes sense -- and the ones where it quietly destroys a plan that was working.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy home equity borrowing is surging right now -- and why keeping a 3% mortgage while opening a HELOC at 7.5% might still be the smarter moveThe Oreo problem: why having a HELOC open "just in case" is the financial equivalent of leaving a sleeve of Oreos on the counter and expecting not to eat themOG's CEO versus CFO framework: how to separate the decision of whether to do the project from the decision of how to finance itThe rate math you should actually run before choosing between a HELOC, a home equity loan, and a full refinance -- including current Bankrate benchmarksHome improvements, credit card consolidation, college costs, business startup, and investing: OG's honest take on each use case, including the ones that are just bad ideasThe questions nobody asks before getting a HELOC -- including when the rate adjusts (spoiler: faster in one direction), what happens to the draw period, and whether the bank can pull the line at any timeWhy using home equity as a third-tier emergency fund sounds clever but has a fatal flawWhat happens if home prices fall and you've borrowed heavily against the equity -- and why Texas has the 80% ruleOG and Anna wrap up season two of the financial basics series -- including why financial planning is an ongoing activity, not a document, and what's coming in season threeThe one open question OG wants Stackers to send him before season three beginsWhy This Matters NowHome prices are up. Mortgage rates are still elevated. The people most tempted to tap their equity are often the ones who built it most carefully -- and that's exactly when the guardrails matter most.From the BasementJoe and OG dig into the HELOC decision with specifics: math, psychology, use cases, and the questions banks don't volunteer. OG and Anna close out season two of the financial basics series with a reflection on why everything in a financial plan connects to everything else -- and a preview of what's coming in season three.

John discusses the Supreme Court giving the thumbs up to Trump's plans to end protected status and potentially deport 350k Haitian immigrants. He emphasizes the resilience of immigrants who have built lives in the United States, only to face the threat of deportation and he highlights the hypocrisy of the right who claim to support hard-working immigrants while simultaneously spreading harmful stereotypes. John also talks about the recent escalation of tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and the implications of California's billionaire tax measure making it to the November ballot. Next, he interviews Dr. David Johns, CEO of the National Black Justice Collective, who discusses the alarming rise in anti-LGBTQ incidents and the challenges faced by elected officials from marginalized backgrounds. Then finally, TV's Frank Conniff is back to joke with listeners about pop culture and politics.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In a challenging decade for media, New York Times President and CEO Meredith Kopit Levien and Vox Media CEO Jim Bankoff have bucked trends and found ways to grow their respective organizations.  Meredith has overseen a massive expansion of the Times' digital subscriber base since becoming CEO in 2020.

A listener sent me a message saying I'd lost my spark. That I didn't sound inspired anymore. Honestly... it made me stop and think. In this episode, I unpack why he was partly right. My calling isn't software deals anymore. It's building businesses, solving problems, and showing up for the people who count on me. I also share one AI workflow that's completely changed how I lead AppSumo, why we overreacted to the AI boom, and what happens when you stop chasing every shiny new thing and get back to your core. If you've ever wondered whether you've outgrown your work, this one's for you.  In this conversation, you'll enjoy 3 BIG things: • Why your calling can evolve without losing your purpose • How to course-correct when you realize you've drifted too far from your core • Why honest feedback (even from AI) can make you a better leader Enjoy these 3 things plus many nuggets along the way. I have also been sharing emails on my brutally honest advice on a variety of topics. People have been loving it.

Here's Claudes feedback on this very episode as it was happening in realtime: The strongest thing in this episode is the thing you didn't plan to talk about. Marcin's note ("you don't sound inspired, you don't want to run AppSumo, you're in the best season of your life") is the whole episode, and your answer to it is genuinely good. The problem is you never say it cleanly. The cleanest version is buried in the middle: software deals isn't your calling, but business is your calling and the company is your responsibility, and the spark didn't die, it matured into follow-through. That's the episode. Right now it's a needle in 20 minutes of riffing instead of the spine the whole thing hangs on. You bury your two best business lessons. The refund/Plus-customer admission is the most useful leadership moment in the episode and you glide past it: "I made decisions on the best info I had, but I didn't check back on the outcomes and improve them, and we course-corrected too slow." That's a clean, repeatable lesson any operator can steal. Same with the over-adjustment arc (we thought SaaS was dying and vibe coding would kill us, so we over-corrected, and now we're walking it back to the core). Both are stronger than the abstract "discoverability / velocity / treat best customers better" framing, which stays high-level. Lead with the admissions, not the framework. The Claude feedback loop is your most shareable practical drop and you undersell it with the $9.99 joke. Transcript-into-Claude-for-feedback, the Eamon skill, Meeting Coach running live during meetings, the reframe that a CEO sets the scorecards instead of solving the problems in the room. That's the segment people will text you about. Give it room. What's working: the vulnerability lands, the floor-sleeping callback is great, and "it's okay to quit stuff and it's okay to continue stuff, the point is recognizing the behavior and whether it's aligned" is your most quotable line. "Calm is cool" and "building up" are good repeatable phrases. What's hurting it: it meanders and has three or four false endings ("yeah that's it," "damn that was the good stuff"). The BYOLM/BYOK bit at the end feels tacked on, half a thought you ran out of runway for. And the "I won't share company secrets" then sharing them is a touch coy. Either share or don't. One structural fix for next time: you open with the listener critique by accident. Open with it on purpose. The episode is "someone told me I lost my spark, here's my honest answer." Frame it that way in the first 60 seconds and the whole thing tightens.

John Ackerman is the CEO of Los Angeles World Airports (LAWA) which runs LAX and Van Nuys airports, two of the busiest in the world. And with LAX as the 'first-touch' point for travelers to Los Angeles, he knows that major renovations are necessary to make LAX the world-class airport that L.A. deserves. Ackerman has huge plans which include making the airport 'more L.A.,' but also making it easier to get into and out of - as well as major overhauls to the airport aesthetically. A former military pilot with a people-first background, is Ackerman the right person to lead LAX and Van Nuys into the future? With the eyes of the world on Los Angeles for World Cup, Super Bowl, and the LA28 Olympics, it looks like he is. Let's get into it!

We tend to talk about AI and the future of work as a young person's game. Dr. Myechia Minter-Jordan, CEO of AARP, is here to challenge that notion. A physician turned healthcare executive turned nonprofit leader, she joins Jessi in the studio to talk about ageism, AI, and what it means to not just stay relevant, but to move ahead, in the second half of a working life.  In this episode, Jessi and Dr. Minter-Jordan discuss: How the fifty-plus workforce is upskilling faster than other generations How to reframe experience as an asset in a job search, and why soft skills are having a moment The move Dr. Minter-Jordan made that surprised everyone: going back to business school in her thirties, while practicing medicine Why mentorship is one of the most powerful tools an older worker has for demonstrating value, and why stepping back from it is a mistake How Dr. Minter-Jordan got her current job as CEO of AARP What the trillion-dollar caregiving economy means for employers, and why the policies aren't keeping up How to approach AI without feeling overwhelmed: start small, stay consistent, and focus on what's relevant to your field Whether you should de-age your résumé How to be strategic about timing a career pivot, especially when you have real responsibilities What Dr. Minter-Jordan would tell a thirty-five-year-old building a career for the long arc This episode was originally recorded live and broadcast to LinkedIn Premium members.

You think you're building a company that's ready for investment or acquisition. Your revenue is growing. Customers are happy. The future looks promising. But what if the very things you're overlooking are quietly destroying your valuation?   In this episode of WholeCEO with Lisa G., Lisa sits down with operator and transformation expert Mark Sims to reveal the hidden factors that separate companies that command premium valuations from those that struggle to get deals across the finish line.   You'll discover: ·        Why founders often misunderstand what buyers are truly evaluating. ·        The subtle warning signs that a deal is beginning to unravel during diligence. ·        The operational weaknesses that create concern even when growth looks impressive. ·        How technology debt and outdated systems can significantly impact enterprise value. ·        What successful post-acquisition integrations have in common—and why others fail. ·        The first areas Mark would audit if a company plans to exit within the next three years. ·        The risks leadership teams unintentionally create without realizing it. ·        Why AI is rapidly becoming part of the diligence conversation and changing buyer expectations. ·        The one thing founders should stop obsessing over and the one thing they should prioritize to maximize value. ·        The advice Mark repeatedly gives CEOs preparing for growth, investment, or a future exit.   This isn't just a conversation about selling a company. It's a masterclass on building an organization that is operationally strong, scalable, and attractive to investors long before a deal is on the table.

Everyone has an opinion about AI in classrooms right now, but very few of those opinions are grounded in what we actually know about how kids learn. In this episode, I sit down with Erin Mote, CEO and founder of InnovateEDU and co-founder of Brooklyn Laboratory Charter School, to cut through the noise and talk about what the evidence actually shows about AI as a learning tool. This isn't a conversation about ChatGPT, cheating, whether to ban devices, or what kids are doing with AI at home on their own time (which are separate topics worthy of their own discussion). We're talking specifically about AI-powered tools designed for classroom use that are being pitched to your district and showing up in your school, and whether they hold up when measured against what we know about how kids learn. In this episode you'll hear Erin share her thoughts on: Why "good enough" consumer tech is not good enough for students, and what to look for in tools that are actually built around learning The difference between sycophantic AI and Socratic AI, and why it matters for student outcomes What the early research is showing about AI as a learning tool, including what's promising and what we still don't know What to ask for and advocate for at the school and district level so these decisions aren't made without you If you've been feeling overwhelmed by the pace of change and unsure what to actually do, this episode will leave you with more clarity, and more confidence in what you already know about how kids learn.

Nobody warned women that their vaginal health could affect everything from their immune system to their marriage. Dr. Anna Cabeca, triple board certified OBGYN and bestselling author known as The Girlfriend Doctor, sits down with Chalene Johnson to talk about the menopausal symptoms women are quietly suffering through and the simple, affordable solutions most doctors aren't mentioning. What's actually happening to the body after 40, why desire disappears before women even understand why, and the three letter term every woman needs to bring to her next doctor's appointment. Dr. Anna also breaks down what women who've had hysterectomies aren't being told about progesterone, the over the counter DHEA cream that runs about a dollar a day, and why a call to your local compounding pharmacist might be the most underrated first step nobody is talking about.

Happiness is a complex emotion and mental state that can be achieved through virtue or pleasure. But should it be for the good of the individual or society? Those in favor of virtue point to the Stoics and the Founding Fathers, saying you should strive for a life of moral virtue and rationality.

This is my second episode with Adam Cramer, CEO of the Outdoor Alliance, a coalition of ten national organizations representing the human-powered outdoor community—mountain biking, backcountry skiing, kayaking, climbing, trail running, and more. The Outdoor Alliance works to protect public lands and the places these communities love, getting deeply involved in conservation policy and empowering people to take action on behalf of the landscapes that matter to them. The last year has been a relentless one for public lands, with threats coming from every direction, and Adam and his team have been in the thick of it. Normally my episodes are "evergreen," but given everything happening right now, I wanted to bring Adam back to give us an update on the current threats—as well as some genuine bright spots. This is such a moving target with so many moving pieces that it can be really hard to keep up with everything and, most importantly, to know how to stop talking and take action. So I brought Adam in to help us make sense of it all and give us some instruction on how we can go on the offense to keep public lands public. We cover a lot of ground: the public lands sell-off that arose out of last summer's reconciliation bill and the massive, cross-partisan public blowback that killed it; the fight over the Roadless Rule; the rescinding of the BLM's Public Lands Rule; proposed changes to travel management and motorized vehicle rules; and the reorganization happening inside the land management agencies. But it's not all grim—Adam walks us through the real reasons for hope, including bipartisan efforts like the Public Lands in Public Hands Act, the EXPLORE Act, and the Legacy Restoration Fund, which is moving through Congress right now and is one of the most important places listeners can weigh in today. We also get into Adam's pragmatic, calm approach to all of this—why he refuses to be hysterical even when the stakes are high, what he's learned about strategy and compassion across the table, and how everyday people with jobs and families can stay informed and actually take action without drowning in the noise. He closes with some great book recommendations and a reminder to embrace and bask in the joy of place. And just for some context, we recorded this on June 22, 2026. I hope you enjoy it and learn as much as I did. And most importantly, I hope you'll TAKE ACTION! --- Adam Cramer Outdoor Alliance (Scroll down on the home page to sign up for their email list.)

Is building data centers in space actually feasible? It may be, thanks to Ariel Ekblaw. The scientist, VC investor and co-founder and CEO of Aurelia Institute has devoted her life to democratizing space and ensuring that humans will one day be a spacefaring species. Ariel sits down with Oz to discuss self-assembling space architecture, how science-fiction influences her inventions, and why she doesn’t think billionaires investing in space is a bad thing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An anti-MEV activist spent weeks building 66 fake contracts to trap the sandwich bot jaredfromsubway.eth. Then jared's operators did the one thing nobody expected. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsors!

Its first stated goal is solving a '15 minute finality problem' that none of the hosts can quite explain the point of. Kain Warwick, Taylor Monahan, and Luca Netz ask whether a breakaway staffed largely by ex-EF people can really escape the EF's habits, or just rebuild a smaller version of them.  Then the conversation turns to fomo's $75M raise from non-crypto VCs, and why a trading app that never calls itself a wallet may have cracked the onboarding flow the rest of crypto keeps getting wrong. The hosts also trace a CryptoPunks judge ordering a self-represented plaintiff to handwrite filings to stop the AI slop, the anti-MEV activist who trapped sandwich bot jaredfromsubway.eth with 66 fake contracts, and the WSJ's claim that Polymarket paid creators to stage fake winning bets.

The emergency department is where America's healthcare system tells the truth. It's the hospital's front door, it can't turn people away, and it absorbs every crack in primary care access, insurance coverage, and patient flow. I'm joined by Dr. Imamu “Mu” Tomlinson, CEO of Vituity, to talk about what actually works when the waiting room is full and the incentives are misaligned.We start with Mu's path from a Canadian teenager dreaming of rap and basketball to a night-shift ER physician leading a 6,000+ doctor partnership with no private equity. From there, we dig into the leadership model behind Vituity: equal physician ownership, transparency with health systems, and a focus on improving lives instead of chasing a single revenue target. Moo makes a sharp distinction between physician satisfaction and physician fulfillment, and explains why autonomy, mastery, and agency are the real antidotes to burnout.Then we get operational. We talk about the payer mix reality in emergency medicine, why stipends are harder to secure, and why diversification across hospital medicine, anesthesia, and other specialties can keep coverage stable. Mu shares ideas for redesigning emergency department throughput, including continuity-based staffing models, plus practical inpatient tactics like reverse rounding to reduce boarding and speed discharges. We close with a big-picture take on healthcare reform that refuses to blame only hospitals or only insurers, and one word of advice for patients: agency.Subscribe, share this with a healthcare leader who lives in the flow problems every day, and leave a review with your take: what's the single change that would most improve patient care where you work?Support the showEngage the conversation on Substack at The Common Bridge!

What happens when everything you were told to do stops working — and you have to figure it out at 23? In this episode of Winners Find A Way, Coach Trent M. Clark sits down with Tony Wilkins, Northwestern and University of Chicago Booth graduate, longtime angel investor, executive coach, cancer survivor, and author of The Art of Angel Investing. Tony grew up as the oldest of six boys, built his career as an electrical engineer at Chrysler Corporation in 1979, and was laid off after just one year, along with 300 others. At 23, with everything he thought he had figured out suddenly gone, he made a decision that would shape the rest of his life — stop solving for a job and start solving for financial independence. From there, he went on to earn his MBA at Booth, build a career in high-level banking and finance, become a founding member of Hyde Park Angels in Chicago, and invest in early-stage companies like Spot Hero (acquired by Uber), Cameo, and Nutrasense. This conversation is about more than investing. Tony and Trent dig into what it really means to be the CEO of yourself — knowing what you are solving for, being ruthless about what you can control, and letting go of what you can't. Tony shares how the layoff that shattered his plans at 23 was actually the best thing that ever happened to him, why he secretly applied to Harvard Business School nine months into his dream job, and how a mentee half his age gave him one of the most powerful leadership phrases he's ever heard: "I am firm in my mission and flexible in my methods." This episode is a reminder that winners are not people who never face setbacks. Winners are the ones who learn, adjust, lead, and find a way. In This Episode, We Discuss: How getting laid off at 23 became Tony's most important life lesson Why you must know what you are really solving for — not just what you want right now The CEO of your mindset and owning your results completely Being ruthless about what you can control and letting go of everything you can't How to get started as an angel investor — even without Silicon Valley connections The concept of "triumph or tuition" and why every investment teaches you something How change, AI, and the next generation will shape the future of leadership Key Takeaways ✨ Know what you're really solving for It's not enough to want a good job or a big title. Tony asks every client: "What are you really solving for?" Keep asking why — five times if you have to — until you get to the truth beneath the surface answer. ✨ Be the CEO of yourself You are responsible for your results. No one is coming to save you. Tony learned this at 23 when Chrysler cut 300 people without warning. The sooner you take full ownership of your direction, the sooner your life changes. ✨ Be ruthless about what you can control Tony's rule: be ruthless about what you can control and ruthlessly ignore everything you can't. Gravity exists. Corporate layoffs happen. AI is here. Your energy goes toward what you can actually move. ✨ Triumph or tuition — just get in the water You cannot learn to swim from a book. You cannot become an angel investor without writing a check. Every investment either gives you a triumph or pays your tuition. Either way, you are learning. The key is to start. ✨ Firm in your mission, flexible in your methods A young mentee said this to Tony at the end of a coaching call, and it stopped him cold. Your mission is the non-negotiable. How do you get there? That can evolve. The best leaders hold both at once.

A new peer-reviewed study of nationwide German data finds suspected adverse-event reports for COVID-19 vaccines were sharply elevated in the earliest weeks of rollout, then fell suddenly. The authors call it a possible batch-dependent safety signal. Danish physician Dr. Vibeke Manniche, the study's lead author and the only Danish doctor to speak out publicly against lockdowns from the start, joins to break down the findings. Published in the International Journal of Risk & Safety in Medicine, the analysis covers the first three and a half years of Germany's vaccination campaign. For one product, early-rollout reporting rates were roughly 80 times higher than the rates seen just weeks later. Dr. Manniche also makes the case for why the US could learn from Denmark's childhood vaccine schedule. Filmmaker Michael Pack, president of Palladium Pictures, discusses their new WSJ Opinion documentary “The Lockdown Dissidents.” Director Rand Courtney speaks on “La Lucha: Getting Schooled in America,” which follows five teens through poverty, trauma, and a broken school system. Dr. Drew is featured in the film. Dr. Vibeke Manniche, MD, PhD, is a Danish physician and author of 35 books on children, family, sleep, and medicine. With 34 years of medical practice, she has worked in epidemiology across rare diseases and public health. She was the only Danish doctor to speak publicly against COVID lockdowns from the outset.

Across the country, developers are racing to build huge new buildings to house computers to fuel the AI boom, creating an explosive demand for new energy. While some hyperscalers seek renewable energy, others are turning to fossil fuels. But concerns around high electric bills, air and noise pollution and water depletion have generated widespread community pushback against these giant facilities, and it seems opposing data centers is a bipartisan issue. Many cities and states are working to rapidly update zoning and other local regulations to respond to the dual pressures of developer interest and constituent backlash. Since data center development isn't slowing down, what policies or creative strategies can lessen the impacts for local communities and ratepayers?

Emmanuel Straschnov is the co-founder and former CEO of Bubble, one of the pioneers of the no-code movement. After graduating from Harvard, Emmanuel set out to democratize software creation by making it possible for anyone—regardless of technical background—to build applications. Self-taught in coding, he built Bubble around a simple but powerful belief: humans shouldn't have to learn a computer's language; computers should understand ours. Today, Bubble powers thousands of businesses and has helped entrepreneurs around the world turn ideas into reality without writing code. On this episode we talk about: How Emmanuel turned a $50 customer check into validation for a billion-dollar idea Why qualitative customer conversations beat massive amounts of user data in the early stages The evolution of no-code tools and how AI is accelerating software creation How entrepreneurs can identify real problems before falling in love with solutions Building a successful business without raising venture capital—and when Emmanuel eventually decided to raise over $100 million Top 3 Takeaways Talk to users before scaling. A handful of deep conversations with customers can provide more valuable product insights than thousands of anonymous analytics events. Solve problems, not ideas. Entrepreneurs often become attached to products when they should be obsessed with the problems they're trying to solve. The barriers to building software are disappearing. With no-code tools and AI, entrepreneurs can launch products faster and cheaper than ever before, making validation easier than at any point in history. Notable Quotes "The right startup ideas are the ideas where someone is willing to give you money for a very crappy version of your product." "Humans shouldn't have to learn a computer's language. The computer should understand their language." "I've always felt that technology should open opportunities to people and remove barriers for people to try things."
